Cheng Man-Ching Style Tai Chi Chuan "Cross Hands" application 1
At the end of the first section of the Cheng Man-Ching form there is a movement called "Cross Hands" It follows a movement called "Withdraw And Push". Between the end of the "Push" posture and the completion of "Cross Hands" there is a scooping motion with the arms. Hence we also refer to this movement as "Carry Tiger To The Mountain". This video is one possible interpretation of the sequence from "Withdraw And Push" through ""Cross Hands" for self-defense.
